[Note: G. and I have formed an informal agreement to split the Arbitor workload, in which I do judge assignment and the Arbitor's other rule- defined requirements, and e maintains the historical records. These assignments respect requests from players to be assigned to specific CFJs.]
<https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3465> CFJ 3465 is "If Proposal 7821 were resolved right now, the outcome would be ADOPTED.", called by Alexis. I deputise for the Arbitor to assign this CFJ to nichdel (the assignment is well over 14 days late). <https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3466> CFJ 3466 is "It is possible to ratify an Agoran Credit Union report, and have the ratification have some effect.", called by ais523. I assign this CFJ to nichdel. <https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3468> CFJ 3468 is "It is possible for circumstances to exist under which is possible to initiate a new Era by announcement.", called by ais523. I assign this CFJ to Publius Scribonius Scholasticus. <https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3468> CFJ 3469 is "At least one Patent Title to be held by something other than a person.", called by ais523 (whoops, it looks like I rather screwed up the statement there...) I assign this CFJ to Publius Scribonius Scholasticus. CFJ 3473 is "On or around 05-Jan-17 08:07:23 UTC, o caused Agora to pay 10 Shinies to G.", called by G.. Because this CFJ is not currently online, I reproduce the relevant discussion below: {{{ On Thu, Jan 5, 2017, 15:36 Aris Merchant, <thoughtsoflifeandligh...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Thu, Jan 5, 2017 at 11:24 AM, Kerim Aydin <ke...@u.washington.edu> wrote: > > On Thu, 5 Jan 2017, Kerim Aydin wrote: > >> there's nothing that says the "plus 10" can't be in a separate later >message, > >> or that you can't do partial awards in general, as long as you get it all > >> in > >> within 7 days.

I assign this CFJ to Aris. <https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3487> CFJ 3487 is "I am not the Judge of CFJ 3481.", called by Aris. I assign this CFJ to Publius Scribonius Scholasticus. <https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3488> CFJ 3488 is "I CAN assign a valid judgement to CFJ 3471 by announcement.", called by G..

(G. suggested the unofficial assignment of CFJ 3473 to this CFJ, but the number was already in use.) I assign this CFJ to Aris.
